Clean and Super Comfy!
Loved the room to stay in for a couple days. We needed a last minute alternative to tent camping, and Big Timbers had a room available for us. Just a short distance from the North Entrance of Itaska- it made the family adventure much more comfortable and doable for us this year. Worked great for a family with young kids and 36 week pregnant mama! Loved it and would recommend! The ice cream and gift shop was an added bonus - especially for the kids after long adventure days at the state Park.

Great location close to Itasca Park. Clean and comfortable room. Owner has Ice Cream parlor a few steps away - which was key after an active day. Would certainly stay there again

The place is like brand new. Great place to go after a day out on the trails. And a added plus for the kids and adults was ice cream and pizza. High recommend this place.

What a wonderful find!
We were very pleased with the place. The manager was there during the day, running their new ice cream shop. Yummy! It had everything we needed. Very clean. A big bathroom and plenty of space. The Fridge even had enough room for a bag of ice. Beds were comfortable. We plan on visiting again. If you needed anything response was quick. They even accommadated us when we messed up on our arrival time.
